Now that the factory is operational I am wondering which of their models are being made there. My LGS people do not know. Also, are any engraved as made in TN?

Everything that is being made in Maryland today is being moved to Gallatin. I know for certain that includes the M9/92xx models. I'm sure they were planning on landing the Army's new service pistol contract, but that went to Sig.

The options on that ARX 100 shows what a company can do when they really try to give their customers what they want.

Barrel swaps with no tools, charging handle flips to either side, ejects either side, 3 mag release points, folding stock that fires while folded, spring loaded snap down sights, 4 picatinny rails, multiple sling attachment points, uses AR mags, minimal lube points and breaks down fast.

I haven’t seen one, but the video makes it look very impressive. Kudos to the Engineering department.

Don't you hate it when that happens!

I'd like to have one at some point. Love the options it has. The sights seem a little flimsy that it comes with. I think it was Tim from MAC that tested one and if you watched him shoot it, the sights would fold downward from the recoil. New sights or other optic would solve that issue. Sounds like Beretta actually follows through with aftermarket support. Unlike Bushmaster with the ACR. That's another one that I would like to have but the ARX, even more so.

It's the bulkiest modern rifle I've ever held, it's not bad, but just feels big, not overly heavy though.

I have to agree with you on bulk.  Like a lot of the bullpup designs, what they make up for in length is lost in bulk.
